Ok, it has been quite some time since you reported this bug, but at last
I managed to look at it during my vacations...

Thank you for the patch for collapsing multiple consecutive slashes in
file names. I generalised it by canonicalising all file names as soon
as they are read into etags. I just installed the change into the
trunk.
I did not install it into the pretest branch yet.
Since this is a bug, it probably should go into the pretest branch too.
What do people think? I am unsure whether this is serious enough to
grant a patch to the pretest branch,
P.S.
Please put me in Cc, as I discovered that I am no more subscribed to the
list, and a new subscription is in progress.

Thanks for checking in your fix to the trunk. I think we can leave it
out of the pretest branch.
